Thus we hold Anti-teenage pregnancy awareness campaigns in different schools across Tshwane Municipality.

We create an atmosphere whereby if the victim is agreeable, face the reformed perpetrator so that she can at least relax and not live in fear. We strive to have a continuous rehabilitating relationship with the ex-offenders to prevent such offenders from going back to crime. One of this programmes is called “The Prodigal Child” which aims at the reintegration of parolees/ex -inmates into society. The inmates receive counseling, skills training, life skills, job placement and accommodation where necessary. They are also paid stipend from partner donors after doing useful work. We encourage ex-abuses to be pillars of society and talk against abuse.

We have over 120 participants who are placed in 10 schools in the North West and the Gauteng province.

Grannies are one of the vulnerable species in our society. They suffer abuse in silence because it is done through their family members. Recently in South Africa, grannies are being raped by strangers and worst scenario by grandsons. We are therefore placing volunteer home based care workers daily in the home of grannies. Our care workers have grannies that have variety of ailments and it’s their duty to ensure total care because visits are made on daily basis. The reason for the daily visit is to also keep their patients accompanied, cook and to tidy up. They also make sure that the grannies adhere to their treatment as prescribed on a full stomach and clean environments. We also have an understanding with the City of Tshwane whereby the councilors refer vulnerable grannies.
